I feel like I'm on hyper speed to get things done! Life is invading on my sewing time but I have managed to get a few projects done. So, here's my "likes" list for this week:
1. Pillowcases for Thomas to match the lap quilt I made earlier:
I use the MSQC tutorial for my pillowcases- so easy and maybe 30 minutes to make.
2." Welcome Winter" is almost done:
3. Christmas crafts at my daughter's house. I don't know how, but my daughter (with her busy schedule) makes sure there is time for at least one day of Christmas Crafts with my grandson:
We made these Saturday night. The Grinch jars contain green M&M's and the Santa jars contain red M&M's. We cut out the face parts from colored felt sheets and glued them to the jar. The Santa hats were from Walmart, I think.
The hats are stuffed a little with paper then glued to the lids. Thomas was able to separate the candy by color and help attach the felt so it worked out pretty well. The jars are just too cute. Thomas loves the Grinch ones, of course.
Well, I hope you are enjoying this week. Gotta get chores done then hopefully work on my quilt!
Please join us at Lee Anna's site:Not Afraid of Color for more fun.

ReplyDeleteHi Mary! What a fun, fabulous craft project for all of you. I just adore the Grinch jars, and how fun that they contain green M&Ms. YUM! Your snowman quilt looks fabulous and will go so well with your holiday colors. And it will be nice and warm! Looks cozy and comfy to me. Happy Happy day to you. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeletethe quilt is pretty, and I really love all the fabrics used. The jars of treats will be a great gift for people!
ReplyDeleteSweet quilt. Love the Christmas Craft and the red and green M & M's yummy.
ReplyDeletePillowcases for Thomas sound like a perfect gift! I should make some for my kids - they are grown-ups, but would probably get a kick out of them. I love your winter quilt - it's just beautiful with the blues and whites. Looks like a fun crafty project, too!
